AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> TANZANIAN youth Kelvin John has joined Juan Pablo \u00c1ngel\u2019s son and the next Kai Havertz in the list of the best 60 gifted young in the World as per the Guardian.<\/p>\n

Most of the young players are in the big team, something that makes Kelvin John a surprise package from football academy.<\/p>\n

It was quite rare for a player to feature in the Guardian\u2019s Next Generation series without being signed to a professional football club, yet Kelvin John is an important exception.<\/p>\n

The versatile attacking player dubbed the \u201cTanzanian Mbapp\u00e9\u201d has been raising eyebrows for a couple of years and is widely regarded as one of Africa\u2019s more eye-catching talents.<\/p>\n

As a 15-year-old at the 2019 Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations, he impressed so much that the former coach of the Tanzanian national team, Emmanuel Amuneke, included him in the Taifa Stars\u2019 Afcon provisional squad later that year.<\/p>\n

John left Tanzania last year and moved to England, where he is attending Brooke House College in Leicestershire and where he is expected to remain until he turns 18 years of age and is legally able to sign for a European club.<\/p>\n

Due to his close ties with Mbwana Samatta and a series of successful trials at Genk, many believe the Belgian club, where Samatta started his own European journey, will be his next home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
